Harrison Ford Talks "Wars" & Blade Runner 2

Harrison Ford took part in a recent Reddit AMA to promote the cable docuseries "Years Of Living Dangerously".


He was asked who shot first, Han Solo or Greedo in that famous scene from Star Wars: A New Hope:

"I don't [k]now and I don't care"

While the actor wouldn't talk about J.J. Abrams' "Star Wars: Episode VII" either he did talk about his interest in doing the Blade Runner Sequel in the role of Deckard.

Original "Blade Runner" co-scribe Hampton Fancher had been at work on the script for new film for director Ridley Scott. Scott Z. Burns was in talks to write the script at one point. Now Green Lantern co-writer Michael Green has been hired to take on the job of reworking the script

Fancher and David Peoples adapted the script for the 1982 sci-fi classic based upon author Philip K. Dick's story Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Ford: "I'm quite curious and excited about seeing a new script for 'Blade Runner' if in fact the opportunity would exist to do another, if it's a good script I would be very anxious to work with Ridley Scott again, he's a very talented and passionate filmmaker. And I think it would be very interesting to revisit the character."

Scott, Broderick Johnson, Andrew Kosove, Bud Yorkin and Cynthia Sikes Yorkin will produce the pic.

He also admits that filming the first one was the "hardest set I've ever worked on because I think we worked 50 nights in a row, and it was always raining."

The movie quote he gets asked to do the most? "Get off my plane." from Air Force One
